NOTES: Statistics are based on a 10 percent sample of all first-ever disability awardees in 2000. Not all sample members were at risk of Medicaid coverage prior to age 65 for the full 24-month observation period. Over 1 percent exited the sample because of reaching age 65. An additional 8 percent died before reaching either age 65 or the end of the observation period.
